Collecting Patient Denials

The CNDA is working to gather information on whether or not California insurance companies are reimbursing or covering patients for visits to naturopathic doctors. To this end, we are currently working with naturopathic clinics to compile documentation from patients on insurer responses to superbill submittals. The CNDA is gathering this evidence to share with the California Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC), the California Department of Insurance (DOI), and the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

If you would like to support the CNDA in this effort to document insurance claim denials, we have created:

We sincerely appreciate you, your staff's, and your patients' time and energy to increase access to naturopathic doctors! The CA Department of Insurance has specifically requested evidence of discrimination against NDs. Evidence from you and your patients could drastically alter the landscape of insurance coverage of naturopathic medicine in our state!
